    What I like about this moment is that the people who ought to be fearful are indeed the ones who are fearful. I mean shit, Elon is posting Tweets about how great CEOs are actually, health insurance companies are removing pages from their websites that identify leadership, it’s a lovely little pocket of schadenfreude where we can all take a breath and prepare for the next 4 years.

      I like the idea that they’ve got billions of dollars, but will have to live in a windowless bunker eating beans.

        They couldn’t even hunker down in their mansions for two weeks of Covid lockdown.

        They like to fantasize about it, but the reality of living like that will hit them fast.

        Boot them from our nice society, in other words

        We could deny them the right to buy and sell too. Just everybody refuses.

      These parasites know that we got numbers on our side and we permit their rule by and large…

      I don’t think this corp of owners realize that plebs can turn on a dime, they got too comfortable. This is a wake up call.

      Having their goon wacked like this got to make them feels a certain way hehe

        I hope there’s a copycat to reinforce the lesson very soon, or they’ll write this off as a one off.
